IT'S TOUGH TO be a provider of a service that customers consider "discretionary" — like, say, consulting. When the economy heads south, so do consultants' revenues.
I actually can't believe sape even now has a stock price > $1. All the others in that group- scient, viant, expedior, razorfish, march first (the list goes on and on) are either gone or on total life support. The next up-tier, which were companies that had web based products as well as services to sell- artg, bvsn, vign are hurting badly, too and some won't survive either.
DVIN bought viant recently, I don't know if anybody bought march first, they're all toast imo. L |
